    Default valves

    i bought a b16 head and supposedly it has skunk2 springs and retainers. How do i tell? will there be markings when i pull them out? also the exhaust valves i think (was looking at it earlier and now cant remember) have an F on them. does anyone know what brand they are or why the F is there?

    thanks in Advance

    My STOCK exhaust valves have a F on the bottom..

    If the retainers look like a Tanish color and NOT titanium.. STOCK!

    AND ALL valve springs should be DUAL

    he means that there will be 2 springs per valve. If they are stock then they will only be dual valve springs on the intake. And the retainers will not be bronzish, but silver.
